Hello,
The device managers details on the video card showed the driver as being the 306.23, also I have tested the graphics card in both PCI-E slots. If it is ok I am gonna go ahead and switch out the video card(Geforce 630 gt) for another one I have (Geforce 9500 gt) and see what I get. I will check in again soon, thanks
Hello,
Just wanted to give an update; so far no problems since switching out the card :). Also a side note of interest, I did what this thread suggested SFC /SCANNOW Command - System File Checker and found a corrupted file that couldn't be repaired: C:\Windows\Speech\Engines\SR\en-US\t1033.ngr and I went through the steps of replacing it. Could this file have had anything to do with the problems I have been having? Will check in again soon, Thanks.

Hello,
Just checking in, I had no problems when I switched out the new video card, but when I switched back to the gt 630 I received a bsod in an hour. Hopefully to rectifiy the problem I updated the driver the beta version that you suggested earlier and haven't had a problem since. I will check in again soon, and if I have no new problems I will check as solved, thank you so much for your time and help.
Thanks for the feedback.
Sorry, been away a few days, sounds promising, if the 306.23 and beta drivers fail then
it will be you GPU that is failing, as we now know the PCIe slots are good.
cheers

Hello,
Well it took a while but I had a new bsod happen while trying to watch a dvd. If possible please take a look at the new info, and if its the nvidia drivers again then I am going to get a new video card. Thank you.
Hi,
Looks like your Nvidia Updater has updated the driver to a newer version:Code:fffff880`009a9228 fffff880`056e6300Unable to load image \SystemRoot\system32\DRIVERS\nvlddmkm.sys, Win32 error 0n2 *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for nvlddmkm.sys *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for nvlddmkm.sys
Dated: nvlddmkm.sys Sat Jul 13 19:43:31 2013
I would suggest disabling the update prog androll back the driver to previous version.
Disable the nividia update program:
1. Press Win key+R
2. Type in msconfig and the system configuration window opens.
3. Select the start up Tab and deselect Nividia updater (Nvtmru.exe I think)
4. Click the services tab and check the "Hide all Microsoft Services"
5. Deselect the Nividia Display Driver Services. Click Apply then click ok.
Observe the situation.
What was the outcome of Memtest?
cheers
Dave
Hello,
I have the Beta Driver that you sugested installed for the graphics card, and it isn't possible for me to roll back the driver because I did a clean install. But I have made sure the updater is disabled.
So far with the memtest procedures as directed from the tutorial had netted some results. I have had the exact same kind of errors pop up on 3 out of 4 of the ram sticks in 3 different slots. There is only 2 errors, are exactly the same, and they always are spotted in test #6. Still testing will check in again soon, thanks.
Hello,
All the Ram sticks came back with the same errors, looks like I need to get some other ram or get another computer to continue testing, at least we're making some headway lol
